Eid-el-fitr: Buhari has a message for Nigerians that sacrificed for him…

President Buhari has promised to ensure that the sacrifices Nigerians made in voting him for a second term in office will never be in vain.

This was made known in a special Sallah message by the president to celebrate the end of the Ramadan fast.

According to a statement released by his Senior Special Assistant (SSA) on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, the President appreciated Nigerians for coming out enmasse to vote for him despite horrible predictions from prophets of doom.

The statement reads:

“Before the 2019 general elections, prophets of doom did not give the country a chance to conduct peaceful elections. Despite these fears, the country overcame its political challenges. For abandoning their businesses in order to vote, the voters had demonstrated great patriotism in coming out to exercise their civic duty. Let me use this opportunity once again to reassure all Nigerians that your sacrifices in voting for me won’t be in vain. I will ensure the ordinary voters feel the positive impact of government.”

President Buhari eent on to urge Muslims to always put humanity before personal interests.

“The Ramadan period is meant to reinforce us spiritually. Therefore, we should use religion as an inspiration to do good at all times. The virtues of the Ramadan should be sustained beyond the celebration. Going back to bad ways after the Ramadan might defeat the essence of the message and lessons the fasting period was supposed to inculcate in the hearts and minds of the Muslim faithful,” he said.

President Buhari concluded by commiserating with victims of terrorism, kidnapping and banditry in the country and assured that,

“Their days are numbered because this administration will pursue them relentlessly and bring them to justice.”
